Just don't try to make eye contact with it or talk to it about your relationships 
Seriously, they did a fantastic job adapting it at least as far as the first four episodes go. They nailed it.
I get why they did but I wish they hadn't done so much to downplay the feed stuff. The little walkie-talkies they use are the worst example of this. Just use headsets like the book, why give everyone a tiny chrome karaoke mic to lug around?
Still enjoying the show a lot; especially the Sanctuary Moon stuff.
